Advantages of using cork tiles
by Brian Miller Article writerCork tiles have gained huge interest in recent times because of many
reasons. Cork is completely natural and renewable material. Cork
flooring is durable, healthy and safe as well. If you think about the
comfort, cork floors score high in this regard as well.
Cork is
one of the most sustainable solutions in today’s world as it is
harvested from the bark of cork oak trees. Manufacturers harvest it
sensibly so that it does not affect the natural balance of our
environment. This ‘green’ material is extremely durable. The tiles do
not crack easily and quite resistant to abrasion. The material is
impermeable to gas and liquid as well. The surface has the quality of
bouncing back and therefore even if it gets indents, it gains its
original shape soon.
There are quality manufacturers that offer
cork tiles at a variety of thicknesses, colors and finishes. If you
maintain it properly, following the instructions of the manufacturer it
can serve you for nearly forty years. Cork is resistant to termites,
mold and mildew and therefore the healthiest option one may have for
their home. You can be sure of a fresh and pure air indoor when you have
cork flooring. In general, cork is fire resistant, and even if it
catches fire at very high temperature, it emanates less smoke and the
smoke is less toxic than any other polymeric floor.
Cork floors
are extremely comfortable. It feels warm during cold weather and
naturally cool during summer. The little bouncing effect gives a soft
and cushioned effect when walking barefoot.
